'Mowgli: Legend Of The Jungle' Trailer Is Here & It's A Darker Version Of 'The Jungle Book'

We all loved 'The Jungle Book' when it came out about two years ago, and it was honestly way better in Hindi than English. Now, we will soon have another retelling of the tale with a much darker storyline.

The trailer for 'Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle' is here and it looks visually spectacular. Netflix unveiled the trailer with the announcement of its worldwide release. The movie will have a limited release in theatres but that's just in the US, so for us the movie will be streaming on Netflix on December 7.

It's a dark tale of a human baby left in an Indian jungle to be raised by a pack of wolves, Bagheera, and Baloo. But then, Mowgli had to return to the 'man world' and leave the jungle after getting threats from Shere Khan. Obviously, his transition from the animal world to the human world was not at all smooth with the kid having an identity crisis.

Not just the premise, but even the star-cast is incredible in this one. Rohan Chand is taking on the role of Mowgli while Andy Serkis, who is making his directorial debut with this movie, will play Baloo the bear, and Christian Bale takes on the role of Bagheera. Cate Blanchett has taken on the role of snake Kaa, and Benedict Cumberbatch will portray the antagonist Shere Khan. Both Matthew Rhys and Freida Pinto are also a part of the movie.

Yes, a good star-cast doesn't always ensure a great movie but the trailer was so great, I have no doubts everyone will be watching this one for sure. Also, no offence to Christian and Benedict, but are we getting a Hindi dubbed version of this one as well? I would be more interested in that, tbh.
